Moody verbs are pretty much a verb that shows mood. So like Angrily, its an action showing emotion.
This question is missing the answer options. I have found them online. They are the following:
A. "She reached the end of the street and made one majestic leap..."
B. "The stray cat stalked down the street."
C. "Her walk was proud..."
D. "... she settled over a meal of broken bones, a back alley Cleopatra."
Answer:
The detail that contains an allusion is:
D. "... she settled over a meal of broken bones, a back alley Cleopatra."
Explanation:
As is explained in the instructions, an allusion is a reference to a famous character or person, one whose story - true or fictional - is well known.
<u>In the passage we are analyzing here, the allusion takes place when the author mentions Cleopatra, a famous queen from Ancient Egypt. By comparing the cat to Cleopatra, the narrator is attributing characteristics of the queen to the animal - dignity, pride, beauty, elegance. </u>The allusion makes is possible for the author to not have to say those words. Since everyone knows who Cleopatra was and what traits and behaviors she was famous for, by simply alluding to her, the author conveys a deeper description.
C. it has negative connotation
an author writing from the point of view of the Indians that were already making their home in America would use this type of language because when Columbus came to America he invaded a space that was already occupied. even though it was a discovery for Spain and England that did not know America existed it was an invasion to the Indians.
Answer:
<h3>People captured for slavery, folks were full of misery, looked the same as the other people from Africa are factual.</h3><h3>Shed their wings, forgot about flying, who could fly kept their power are fictional.</h3>
Explanation:
- In "The People Could Fly," by Virginia Hamilton, she presents the story about the suffering and violence of the enslaved people in a folklore genre.
- She presents factual events such as 'people captured for slavery, folks were full of misery, and looked the same as the other people from Africa' to address the suffering and atrocity experienced by the African-Americans during slavery.
- And at the same, the narrator adds fictional details such as 'shed their wings, forgot about flying, and who could fly kept their power' as an element of folklore in the story.
